Hiaasen would have been my guess as well, since he wrote the book and all :)

Thanks Tiki and Dean. The posters were just laying around taking up space so I thought I'd give them away to people who would appreciate them. I consider it payback for all the info and entertainment I get from this board. As far as the difficulty of the questions, I'm just going from my general knowledge of all things Buffett. Don't want to be a hard ass. That said, if any previous winners want to PM me a question, I'd consider using it.

Monday's question/task. In the vein of "six degrees of Kevin Bacon," link Jimmy Buffett to Harry Belfonte, via released recordings, in three steps (no more no less). For example, Jimmy sang with (X) on (song title). (X) sang with (Y) on (song title). (Y) sang with Harry Belafonte on (song title). I have one path but there probabaly are more so it might take me a while to verify the first correct answer.

1. Harry Belafonte

2.Ralph MacDonald
At seventeen, MacDonald became the percussionist for famed songster Harry Belafonte

3. Jimmy Buffett, Ralph MacDonald is in the Coral Reffers

If you need another degree in there,
Ralph Macdonald has played with James Taylor, who has played with Buffett.

Cdudley, excuse my ignorance but does Ralph Mcdonald sing on those recordings? If not, Shakerofsalt is the winner.
